Real talk
This is a chypre for people who know what a chypre is. The aldehydes at the top aren't a gimmick, they're the lift that keeps the citrus from going flat and the florals from going soft.Ad Libitum
This isn't a fragrance that fills a room. It's for the person who understands that some of the best things happen at conversational distance. The moderate sillage isn't a flaw, it's the point.French Lover
